  • Publication number: 20240309938
    Abstract: A rope buckle assembly includes a female buckle and a male buckle. The female buckle has an accommodating slot and a plurality of openings that are in spatial communication with the accommodating slot. The accommodating slot has two guiding surfaces protruding from a slot bottom thereof, and the openings are respectively arranged at two opposite side of the accommodating slot and respectively face toward each other. The male buckle includes two rigid arms and a deformable segment that connects the two rigid arms. When the male buckle is inserted into the female buckle, the two rigid arms swing toward each other to jointly compress and deform the deformable segment by respectively abutting against the two guiding surfaces, so that a through hole of each of the two rigid arms corresponds in position to two of the openings facing each other for jointly defining a rope channel.

  • Publication number: 20240309939
    Abstract: A rope buckle assembly includes a female buckle and a male buckle. The female buckle has an accommodating slot and a plurality of openings being in spatial communication with and respectively arranged at two opposite side of the accommodating slot. The accommodating slot has two guiding surfaces protruding from a slot bottom thereof. The male buckle has two through holes in spatial communication with each other and includes two elastic arms spaced apart from each other. When the male buckle and the female buckle jointly receive an external force to move from an initial position to a through position, the two elastic arms are compressed and deformed by respectively abutting against the two guiding surfaces, so that each of the two through holes becomes smaller, and each of the two through holes corresponds in position to two of the openings for jointly defining a rope channel.

  • Publication number: 20100108481
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a light-emitting keyboard, comprising: a membrane circuit board whose bottom surface is printed with a light guide ink; a light source provided on one side of the membrane circuit board for projecting light to enter the light guide ink of the membrane circuit board; a first reflector disposed underneath the membrane circuit board to reflect a portion of the light that escapes from the membrane circuit board to enter the light guide ink of the membrane circuit board; a second reflector provided on top of the membrane circuit board to reflect a portion of the light that does not pass therethrough back towards the light guide ink; a supporting plate disposed on top of the second reflector; a scissor assembly disposed on top of the supporting plate; a keycap disposed on top of the scissor assembly; and an elastic contact body having a contact portion.
